The Paper Players 376 - Design Team Card

After last week's Punny Valentine Challenge at The Paper Players, we have an exciting colour challenge for you: three core colours plus one other of your choice.

I had a bit of trouble including a fourth colour but went for using some touches of copper to help accent the sentiment.

I enjoyed using a new set from the Occasions catalogue, Perennial Birthday. Apart from a number of great birthday sentiments, the other stamps in the set are floral bits and bobs to let you build up a garden or bouquet, so I was pleased to see that it could also create a more masculine offering.

After repeat stamping HAPPY BIRTHDAY in the three colours on the background, I made a cluster for the second part of the wording. The sentiment is in Dapper Denim. There's a scalloped circle in Tranquil Tide on a copper foil circle. That's popped up on dimensionals over a pair of Everyday Labels in Eastern Palace DSP. Then there's a bit of copper metallic thread tucked in behind.

At The Paper Players, we'd love to see what you do with these colours. Here's a reminder of the few rules to keep in mind.

Please link your card to no more than four challenges, total. Entries linked to more than 4 challenges, including ours, will be deleted without notification.

Have fun!

Jan, I love the touch of copper - and such a fashionable color again. It really does pop with the other colors. I also love your layout and the repetition of the sentiment. Fabulous use of the colorshugsjaydee

I sort of glossed over this stamp set, but your card made me sit up and take notice of it! I think it has lots of little images that will be fun to put together! I can't wait to see what you make with it next! Great masculine take on the colors too!

Jan, thanks for your comment on my card. When I saw your card in the gallery I was SO tempted to CASE it LOL. I love the repeat stamping and the addition of copper thread, your cards are always so clever. Cx
